Thats Awesome!   Do have a picture of this Ring?  Has he made you a lantern yet?

I don't have a pic I can post now, but when I get home I'll take one and post it. And I don't know if I'm an "official" lantern, but he taught me the oath. :P

In brightest day
in blackest night
no evil shall escape my sight
let those who worship evil's might
beware my power
green lantern's light!

[Edit] Here's pics of the ring, sorry they are blurry, apparently my cameras don't have a good resolution. Basically the engagement ring has 3 lanterns, one in the center and one on each side, and each has a little stone in it, and then the wedding ring is just made to fit with it on my hand.

Okay, this is going to sound out of the blue, but I've been watching 'Primeval', a British series about ripples in time allowing prehistoric animals to come into London.

The main character, Professor Nick Cutter, is played by Douglas Henshall.  He tends to be quiet and soft-spoken, only occasionally getting upset.

And now I can't get it out of my head for him to play Martin

It seems like a good choice  :)
Missing you, Md

I want Will Wheaton to play as Butters.

So funny,
Sir  Reginald.
I will miss you, my friend Mdodd. May you find peace.
Snowy,  I am rooting for you. I hope you remain happy and as comfortable as possible.

I don't know if anyone remembers the "BBC casting" discussion we were having here some time ago, but I just saw this:



...and my thought was pretty much "Harry and Murphy."

Mmmmm.... nah. Wheaton is awesome, and is a real-life geeky nice guy, but he comes off as kind of asshole-ish on screen. I don't think he's got the right... energy for Butters.

Ahahaha! I love it!!

I agree on Will Wheaton not being the best choice for Butters.
Not sure who the two Brits are - am not sold on them as Harry and Murphy either - sorry.

Woah, I'm a huge Who fan, and it took me a minute or two before I convinced myself that was David Tennant.  His face looks odd at that angle.

Man, I wish that couple every happiness, but they have to have the most weirdly fandomcestuous relationship ever.  Remember when the Doctor's daughter who played the Doctor's daughter in "The Doctor's Daughter" had the Doctor's daughter? :D

Whoa, that's David Tennant - didn't even recognize him.
Hey mdodd, I'm still a Who fan but I haven't watched it for years - so I only know
bits and pieces of what's going on or who is WHO so to speak. ::)

I always picture Billy as a younger Wil Wheaton. I don't know why. Must be the whole gaming geek thing.
My Dresden Files Purity Rating is 40%. It'd be higher if I could find the time to actually play the DFRPG.

That I could see. Billy has a bit more... aggressive energy.
